Listening to the Voices of All Things (1/3)

"Alright, let's talk about your current situation!"

With her gaze returning to Li Boyang, Xiluo rarely brought up a serious topic.

"You are now able to hear more and more voices"—this is your process of evolving from Innate Divine Being to a god.

"However, most gods are only able to hear the voices of their followers and priests after they have become gods."

After a slight pause, Xiluo continued, seemingly gloating.

"Only you had a considerable number of followers before becoming a god, including many Innate Divine Being qualified to become priests."

"This means that you are now practically a god—"

"Next, just find any mountain peak or a watercourse to settle down, and I believe you will soon be able to smoothly advance to become a god."

"This is fortuitous opportunity that countless Innate Divine Being and gods would rather die than obtain, so what is there to worry about?"

Li Boyang naturally sensed the gloating in Xiluo's words, and could only roll his eyes helplessly.

"I think Flying Peak is quite nice. Why don't you let me be your mountain god?"

The two bantered skillfully, leaving Lu Huaijin was standing nearby, looking completely bewildered.

Li Jingshu, on the other hand, was already used to this and just watched it all with a smile.

In Lu Huaijin's eyes, Xiluo was the ruler of Flying Peak and even the entire Yunmeng Marsh.

Li Boyang is the Son of the Mountain God, a born sage.

But in Li Jingshu's eyes, the two had a relationship that was closer than family.

They've not only argued, but they've even fought before, so Li Jingshu is used to it.

Although in most cases, it was Xiluo who was throwing a tantrum.

This was the most memorable time for Li Jingshu.

This occurred after the reconstruction of Flying Peak, before the floods swept across the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

Neither Li Boyang nor Xiluo mentioned what exactly happened during that time, so Li Jingshu wasn't quite sure either.

All she knew was that Xiluo was truly furious during that time, and even forbade Li Boyang from setting foot on Flying Peak again.

It wasn't until Li Boyang took the initiative and recaptured the Ghost God who had already escaped Flying Peak.

The relationship between the two sides gradually eased, which led to the creation of Yunmeng Marsh.

"Ha, if you really want to be a god--"

"Isn't this Yunmeng Marsh just missing a ready-made god?"

Xiluo jumped directly onto the altar, found a suitable spot to lie down again, and then lazily said...

"Today, Yunmeng Marsh is the place where the Hundred Lands Mountain Range converge, and the central hub connecting the Earth Dragon."

"Raising a powerful god is quite simple."

"Moreover, you yourself have figured out the secret to becoming a god."

Upon hearing Xiluo's words, Li Boyang immediately thought of the culprit that had caused him so much trouble.

"It's all Chi's fault. I only asked her to deliver the River Chart and Luo River Book to the disaster-stricken people along the way."

Who would have thought that those Human-Faced Fish would all be so honest and simple-minded?

"Not only was Chi exposed, but the existence of Arbiter of Fate was also emphasized."

"As a result, now almost every village and state with the River Chart and Luo River Book) has erected statues of me and Chi."

Upon hearing this, Xiluo immediately burst out laughing, and didn't forget to add insult to injury.

"Yes, and it's a statue depicting a fish with Human-Faced Fish."

I recently took some time to visit the Baling Kingdom.

"That tall, three-eyed, red-faced Human-Faced Fish did indeed look exceptionally majestic."

The statue of Li Boyang was sculpted as Human-Faced Fish because the River Chart and Luo River Book were delivered by the Human-Faced Fish.

In this world where the Innate Divine Being truly exists.

Those humans who benefited from his grace naturally regarded "Arbiter of Fate" as a god with Human-Faced Fish.

Combined with the various characteristics of "Arbiter of Fate" inadvertently revealed by the Human-Faced Fish.

A red, Human-Faced Fish with three eyes naturally became the image of Li Boyang in people's minds.

"Don't say that, the image of the Baling Kingdom is actually quite good."

"At the very least, they really did see the Human-Faced Fish -Human-Faced Fish, they just slightly modified its appearance."

Covering half his face in pain, Li Boyang sighed deeply.

"But those humans who had never seen the Human-Faced Fish and only obtained a copy of the River Chart and Luo River Book had a very different understanding of the concept of ' Arbiter of Fate '."

"The better ones will be sculpted in a human form, at most a half-human, half-fish shape."

"But those ignorant fools who love to daydream, you simply can't believe how outrageous their creativity can be."

Without Xiluo and the others even needing to ask, Li Boyang couldn't hold back any longer and started complaining.

"Today I heard from villagers that they want to create an image of my deity based on the shapes of the River Chart and Luo River Book ---"

"If it were just that, it would be fine, but they like to add all sorts of details they hear and imagine."

"The result was a book with three eyes, sharp teeth, and a completely red body?"

When the word "book" was mentioned, Li Boyang visibly hesitated for a moment.

Because "book" was just what the villagers called it, he didn't acknowledge that the square, indescribable object was a "book."

However, these statues come in all sorts of strange shapes.

But the sounds that reached Li Boyang's ears constantly reminded him that those strange statues were indeed himself.

Unlike the Mind-Reading Divine Ability " technique that Li Boyang developed himself.

These voices from all living beings were forced into Li Boyang's ears, regardless of his wishes.

According to Xiluo, this is the necessary path to becoming a god.

The only difference is that most gods do not have so many steadfast believers.

Some Savage Wilderness and uncivilized gods have no followers at all, let alone listen to their voices.

Listening to the Voices of All Things.

This is what most deities call this ability.

But only the gods who have accomplished great deeds can truly Listening to the Voices of All Things.

"It's strange, but ordinary deities can easily block out those sounds."

"Take me for example, I basically only listen to what I want to hear, and I just ignore what I don't want to hear."

Just then, Xiluo licked her paws and continued speaking.

"The ability to hear the voices of believers is merely one of the powers of a deity, but it is not a necessary condition for becoming a god."

"But something is clearly wrong with your current situation. Perhaps it's related to the fact that you haven't become a god yet?"

"Why don't you try becoming a god first, and see if you can block out those voices after you become a god?"

Hearing Xiluo speak so casually, anyone who didn't know better would think that becoming a god was such a simple thing.

Fortunately, Li Boyang was already used to Xiluo's nonsense, and instead showed a thoughtful expression.

"Wait, you don't actually want to become a god, do you?"

Guang noticed the expression on Li Boyang's face, and Xiluo, who had been teasing him, widened her eyes.

"Do you intend to abandon your Way of the Celestial Person?"

Li Boyang shrugged slightly and smiled noncommittally.

"That's not necessarily true; perhaps these two paths don't conflict at all?"

As he said this, Li Boyang gazed into the distance, looking beyond the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

"Perhaps someone can give me a suggested answer--"
